Accessible, visually stimulating guide to clinical neuroanatomy,
striking the perfect balance between regional and functional
content Essential Clinical Neuroanatomy, 2nd Edition discusses the
anatomy of the nervous system from the clinical perspective in
easy-to-understand language, providing descriptions of the sensory,
motor, and integration systems within the nervous system.
Illustrations are included throughout in the clinical view using
the axial radiologic standard of computed tomography and magnetic
resonance imaging. To enable seamless reader comprehension, the
text includes case studies, study questions, boxes of interest to
highlight the clinically relevant neuroanatomy, learning
objectives, an outline of each chapter’s material to be covered,
multiple choice questions, and further reading resources. Essential
Clinical Neuroanatomy, 2nd Edition contains information on: Topics
important to clinical medicine, but often neglected in other
neuroanatomy texts, such as trauma, infection, and congenital
considerations Includes recent reviews and references with a focus
on the cortical chapter and the imaging chapter where there is
significant ongoing research Two new chapters on the peripheral and
autonomic nervous systems Use of imaging studies used in clinical
neuroanatomy, including how to evaluate these images Neuroanatomy
of the central nervous system, covering an overview of the nervous
system, blood vessels, meninges, and ventricles, neurodevelopment,
the spinal cord, brain stem, cerebellum and cortex Sensory, motor,
and integration systems, covering the visual system, auditory and
vestibular system, olfaction and taste, central motor control, the
limbic system and cortical integration Essential Clinical
Neuroanatomy, 2nd Edition is the perfect resource for medical and
health science students taking a course on neuroanatomy and as an
on-going companion during those first steps in clinical practice.
The text is also useful for those reviewing neuroanatomy for major
licensing or competency examinations (National Board of Medical
Examiners (NBME) United States Medical Licensure Exams (USMLE).
